I urge the deletion of this grossly biased article

Why is this inflammatory demonisation deemed acceptable?:

'Most terrorism in the country are[sic] conducted by Islamic terrorist groups.'

' The terms "terrorism" and "terrorist" (someone who engages in terrorism) carry strong negative connotations.[39] These terms are often used as political labels, to condemn violence or the threat of violence by certain actors as immoral, indiscriminate, unjustified or to condemn an entire segment of a population.[40][41] Those labeled "terrorists" by their opponents rarely identify themselves as such, and typically use other terms or terms specific to their situation, such as separatist, freedom fighter, liberator, revolutionary, vigilante, militant, paramilitary, guerrilla, rebel, patriot, or any similar-meaning word in other languages and cultures. Jihadi, mujaheddin, and fedayeen are similar Arabic words that have entered the English lexicon. It is common for both parties in a conflict to describe each other as terrorists. [42] '
